The Asheboro Couder PRICE ONE DOLLAR A YEAR Wm. C. HAMMER, Editor. THURSDAY. March 22, 1906. Follow These Suggestions. The Monroe Journal has this which The Courier asks ita read ers to accept as coniming from it: 'The Journal will be beholden to its readers all over the county if they will 'phone into the office any items of news that may occur in their neighborhoods. Most people depend upon some one else to give the paper man the news, and you never see a man who knows some thing without his presuming that the reporter has heard it too, and it is therefore not worth telling. Al ways presume that the paper man haseu't heard it and you will do the right thing. What is news? Any thing is news that anybody is inter ested in-" HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK BRIEFLY TOLD. Ever since the Democrats succeed ed, after most desperate efforts, in eliminating the ignorant negro from politics in this State, the Republi cans have been trying to make weak kneed Democrats believe that the Republican party is respectable enough for them to join. Hut is it? No, not if high Republican au thority can be relied on. Demo cratic papers and speakers have re peatedly asserted that the Republi can leaders in this State cared only for the Federal oftiees. This is now admitted by The Tar Heel, the organ of the Blackburn faction. In a recent issue that paper exco riates the leaders who control the Republican party in this Sttte. We copy the following extract: "Ihev have proven themselves incapable and inefficient for task which has been placed on them to perform. Whether this ineffi ciency arises from stupidity or voli tion we are at no loss to say, and de clare frankly that it is the latter. They have cared more for the ad vancement of their own selfish, per sonal interests than that of their par ty. Tie Sci amble was of vast more im portance to them than party success. Their whole aim and desire has been to build up an office-holding party, with little or no concern that the wishes of the people should be heed ed." Remember now that the above quoted words are not "a Democratic he but were a part of a recent edi The large plant of the Milton Roller Mills, located on the suburbs of Milton, N C, together with con tents of buildings were destroyed by fire Thursday morning. The loss is estimated at $25,000. Mrs Margaret White, widow of the la'e William R White and sister-in-law of Mr J Alanson White, of Statesville, died near Hillsboro, 111, February 26th, aged 74 years. Mrs White lived with her sons.

Mr Thomas Hill, a well known and prosperous farmer living near Greensboro, died last week. Mr Hill formerly lived at Millboro, where the remains were interred Friday last. The Dixie Fire Insurance Com pany with $500,000 authorized capi tal, with $d,000 subscribed ha8 been chartered by the Secretary of State. The main office will be at Greensboro. The U S Supreme Court has re f used to remove the case of the State of Kentucky vs. Capel Powers from the State to Federal Court. Powers has been three times con victed of murder of Gov Gobel, of Kentuckey six years ago. He was sentenced to death once and to life imprisonment the other two.

Alfred Thompson, who lives near Denton, Davidson county commited suicide last Thursday by hanging nimselt in a barn. He wa3 between 45 and 50 years of age and was twice married. He leaves a widow and eight children. Mr Walter Rankin, for a quarter of a century one of Salisbury's most prominent and progressive citizens died Wednesday morning last, after an illness of about two years with paralysis. Why Greensboro should be thought to be a fertile field for a Socialistic propaganda we are at a loss to understand, but tne Socialists evidently regard it as such. Thurs day night another Socialist speaker addressed a small audience in the court house and made a plea for the poor down-trodden "working man," who, according to him, is being ground to powder beneath the iron heel of plutocratic oppression. That certain conditions exist which call for a remedy is admitted by all, but a dose that stops the disease sometimes kills the patient, and our Socialistic fellow citizens are like children playing with a dynamite. At least, such is our opinion, but ive are also of the opinion that the surest way to spread their doctrine is to use drastic measures in an at tempt to stamp it out. Simply let it run its natural course, give its ad herents every right of free speech guaranteed them as American citi zens, and the problem will solve it self. Industrial News. The third buggy factory will be put in operation at Oxford soon by Oxford Buggy Company, capitalized at $100,000. The Seaboard Air Line is soon to build a $50,000 depot at Monroe.

Chatham Record. Predicts Bryan In 1908. Joseph us Daniels, editor of the Raleigh News and Observer, and serving his fourth term as a mem ber of the Democratic National Committee recently predicted to the correspondent of the Washington Post that V m Jennings Bryan will be the nominee of united Democracy in 1908. Continuing Mr Daniels says: "In North Carolina the people ' look to see Mr Bryan lead a win ning fight in 1908, and he would undoubtly head the ticket were the convention to be held this year. No other man in the party has grown so much as the Nebraskan in the confidence of the thoughtful people of America. "The chief source of Roosevelt's popularity grows out of his advocacy of doctrines which he condemned, Bryan for preaching, and the presi dent must himself realize that his only hope of securing the legislation he favors is in democratic co-operation. In describing the true pater nity of thejrail way-rate bill it should be called the Bryan-Roosevelt measure."
